Autumn Painting Of Maple Tree

Autumn Painting Of Maple Tree

Inspired by maple trees with the red and gold colors of the autumn season, I painted a maple tree with the swirl of golden-yellow background. I think this painting is more like a modern abstract, if I’m not mistaken because I have never been in an art school. I just paint whatever comes in my mind.

I love painting, but I need at least two whole days to finish a simple painting. And two whole days means I ask a lot from my daily routine 🙂 That’s why I don’t do a lot of painting even though there are many ideas and objects that have already taken lines in my mind. So, every time I have a time to paint and able to finish it, I’m very pleased!

Actually I have been postponed this autumn painting of maple tree for a month. I was very busy and unable to paint something more complicated. So, this maple tree painting is quite simple and fast in its process.

This was the first time I used acrylic paint on a canvas. I found it a lot easier to use acrylic instead of oil paint because acrylic paint dries faster than oil paint. So, the painting process is a lot faster which was good for my busy days. Just for information, I used acrylic colors of Vermilion, Yellow Ochre, lemon yellow, gold, titanium white, crimson, burnt umber.

I have now a need addition to my autumn decoration and painting collections. I hope all of you who drop by to peak and read my post enjoys this Autumn Painting Of Maple Tree. May you be inspired too by this golden-yellow and red maple tree painting of autumn season spirit and create something in your own creations.

See you soon!

I entered below challenges for this Autumn Painting Of Maple Tree and play at Party Paint Friday :

This is so pretty. Just got home from the state fair and there was so much art to see, I took a bunch of photos, they were all so beautiful. They even had art from kids ages 6 and up. This painting of yours would have been a blue ribbon winner from all the winners I saw…very nice.

Wow, what an amazing painting! I love the way you painted the sun and how it’s glorious colour fills the sky, it’s the perfect backdrop to your pretty maple tree – beautiful 😀. Happy Autumn and weekend! J 😊 x

I love your maple tree, Mel! The swirly background and the dotty tree look fabulous!
I know, what you mean, when you say you have many projects in mind and too less time to make them – it´s the same here.
Thank you for playing with us this month at Country View Challenges!
Have a good day!
